Abstract
Hermitian kernels are introduced with the property that their Kolmogorov decompositions admit a Schur-type description. The main technical tool is the solution of an extension problem for indefinite factorizations and applications are indicated to some recent Kreįn space versions of the trigonometric moment problem and the Carathéodory-Schur problem.
